Semantic Fingerprinting and Machine Learning for Content Discovery

Molecular Connections collaborated with a leading scientific publishing society in the physical sciences to enhance content discoverability and recommendation. The project involved developing a rich ontology and semantically enriching millions of backfiles using AI/ML-driven solutions, including semantic fingerprinting and content classification.

Benefits & outcomes

  • Improved content discoverability and recommendation.
  • Real-time indexing of articles.
  • Expansion of reviewer database, including authors, editors, and referees.
  • Contextual advertising opportunities through thesaurus-driven ad space.
  • Completion of the project in less than 6 months.

Notes & quotes

“The MC team ensured the ontology built was a manifestation of AIPP’s content.”

“Embracing the challenge of curating 1,500,000 terms and distilling them down to 35,000 terms across 26,000 topics.”

“The solution provided polyhierarchical support and semantically indexed 1 million articles with high accuracy.”

“The client witnessed improved discoverability and content recommendation, real-time indexing, an expanding reviewer database… and contextual advertising specific to selling thesaurus-driven ad space.”
